阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

  When I was about 12, I had  1 , a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings. Week by week her list  2 ; I was skinny, I wasn't a good student, I was boyish, I talked too loud, and so on. I  3 her as long as I could. At last, with great anger, I ran to my father  4 .

  He listened to my outburst(爆发)  5 . Then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not?”

  True? I wanted to know how to strike back. What did  6 have to do with it?

  Mary, didn't you ever wonder what you are really  7 ?Well, you now have that girl's  8 . Go and make a list of everything she said and  9 the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.

  I did as he directed and discovered to my  10 that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change (like being skinny) ,  11 a number I could-and suddenly wanted to-  12 .

  For the first time in my life I got a fairly  13 picture of myself.

  I brought the  14 back to Daddy. He refused to take it.

  “That's just for  15 ,” he said. “You know better than anybody else the truth about yourself,  16 you hear it. But you've got to learn  17 ,not to close your ears  18 or hurt. When something  19 about you is true you'll know it. You'll find that will echo (回响)inside you.”

  Daddy's  20 has returned to me at many important moments.
